My husband and I came to Calvary the Summer of 2005. We appreciated the biblical teaching and heart for missions and outreach.

I received my B.A. in Christian Education from Biola University. Then I completed a M.A. in Christian Ministry and Leadership from Talbot Theological Seminary. Before coming to Calvary I served in full time ministry for 11 years in high school and college ministry at another church.
Where were you born and raised?

Tell us about your family...
My husband and I were married May 15, 2005. and love being marrried. What a gift from God.
Tell us how you "popped the question," or how it was popped to you.
We truly had a fairy tale engagement. He took me to New York City at Christmas time with some of our closest friends. He proposed in a horse drawn carriage with two white horses in Central Park under the stars at night. It is a moment I will never forget.
What is your favorite memory from your time at Calvary Church?
Developing relationships with our women; whether it's the gals from Tuesday Morning or on our Retreats- these are my favorite memories.
Who have been the biggest spiritual influencers in your life?
First and foremost- my parents. They laid a godly hertiage for my brothers and I and we are so grateful as they lived out their faith on a daily basis. God has also provided various older women who have mentored me throughout the years.
Favorite place you’ve been in the world and where do you want to go next?
So many- I love the beaches of Hawaii and the beauty of Europe. My husband and I are praying about going to Israel next.
When I can't be found at Calvary, I can be found...
Out at our place in the desert. We love to relax, play golf, bike ride, go for walks, and lay out at the pool.
Hidden Talent?
Have you ever seen me dance to 70's & 80's music?
What do you count as the greatest invention of the last 100 years?
The cell phone and the internet- what did we ever do without it?
On what reality show would you most want to be a contestant?
Dancing with the Stars- I would love to learn all those dances.
